Have you ever wanted to experience the thrill of snowshoeing, learn how to build a campfire, or master winter hiking skills? In this special podcast episode, we take you on a journey to Fort Snelling State Park, where State Services for the Blind (SSB) partnered with Wilderness Inquiry to create an unforgettable winter experience for blind and visually impaired students.

 

Guided by experienced outdoor educators, students learned essential winter survival skills, from navigating snowy trails with snowshoes to starting a fire using only a spark and a cotton ball. They also discovered the importance of teamwork, problem-solving, and dressing for cold weather while exploring the winter landscape. And, of course, no winter adventure would be complete without enjoying hot chocolate and s’mores around a warm campfire!

 

Whether you’re interested in outdoor adventures or simply want to gain confidence in new environments, this episode will inspire you to step outside, embrace new challenges, and explore the world around you.
